jack up concrete diy spot, just a thought
« on: March 21, 2015, 10:47:56 PM »
you think theres a way one could easily jack up a slab of sidewalk the way a bursted pipe or tree truck would do it?

also anyone ever gone at skatestoppers with a cordless grinder? do they cut through easy enough?

I would think a well placed hit with a small sledge hammer would do the trick. either that or well placed screwdriver working as a chisel to create a wedge

I dunno about an entire sidewalk slab, but skaters are always propping up tree grates and trap doors with their filmers board to make wedges up to taller ledges, over gaps, etc.

If you're patient you could plant a tree. Come back everyday and read it a poem by Tupac Amaru Shakur

Did you hear about the rose that grew
from a crack in the concrete?
Proving nature's law is wrong it
learned to walk with out having feet.
Funny it seems, but by keeping its dreams,
it learned to breathe fresh air.
Long live the rose that grew from concrete
when no one else ever cared.
